More explosives and teargas being used on the citizens of Portland from federal agents. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

There’s one tiny hole in the fence, this warrants hundreds of teargas canisters. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

This is America. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Some of the folks out here that the feds are fighting. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Umbrellas versus federal officers. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

I’m getting reports that the feds are using their own leafblower. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

And it’s true, federal officers are using leaf blowers to push the teargas back at the crowd. I wonder where they got that idea from?? #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #portlandmoms

Well this is interesting, I wonder what he’s doing up there... #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Very nice shield wall up in the front. #blacklivesmatter     #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The protester’s leaf blower squad is trying to overcome the Fed’s two leafblowers. #blacklivesmatter     #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The northwest corner of the courtyard after the teargas has cleared out. #blacklivesmatter     #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

And officer started talking with a member of the crowd, he was then sent inside the courthouse by fellow officer. #blacklivesmatter     #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The Feds have just declared an unlawful assembly. #blacklivesmatter     #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Feds start a massive teargassing. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Most of the crowd stays pretty close despite the teargas. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Overall the protesters are keeping the gas contained in the courtyard. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

A large team of citizens with leafblowers are keeping the teargas from spreading into the streets of Portland. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The crowd successfully pushes back another cloud of teargas. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Teargas and distraction smoke fired simultaneously. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The teargas and smoke cloud is oddly beautiful. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The leaf blowers are working at an amazing efficiency. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The officers try teargassing the street again, they are no match for the leafblowers. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The courtyard keeps getting soaked in tear gas. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

In between teargassing’s there are bubbles in the air. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

There are so many people willing to stand in massive clouds of teargas to try to blow it away. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

It’s 2 AM and the shield wall stands strong. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Balloons and Bubbles. #blacklivesmatter      #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

I was just about to leave downtown then I saw tons of gas by the fence and Feds on 4th and Salmon. #blacklivesmatter       #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

I’m being told this man stabbed someone. #blacklivesmatter       #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Federal agents at 4th Ave and Taylor St. #blacklivesmatter       #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Portland Police Bureau has showed up. #blacklivesmatter       #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Feds have pulled back to 4th and Salmon and a few police cars drive away. #blacklivesmatter       #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

Definitely is communication going on between the Federal Officers and Portland Police Bureau. #blacklivesmatter       #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

And all the officers pull back. #blacklivesmatter       #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

The camo clad officers head towards the courthouse, fireworks go off in the distance. #blacklivesmatter       #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #Feds #MOMTIFA #MomsAreHere #portlandmoms

As the DHS, and other federal officers, pull further back to the courthouse they deploy teargas and shoot impact munitions at the crowd.
